'Prosperity and economy are companions under Republican administration.

The Republican party is a debt paying party, the Democratic party is. a.Kdebt creating party.

•Hugh T. Miller is one of the best Republicans in Indiana. Every Hancock county Republican should make his acquaintance next Saturtey», ...

Salary Grab.

•Tn® salary grab of $67,000.00 made bi the last Democratic legislature of Indiana will have to be paid by IJie taxpayers of the state. li 'Trae political drift is sti'ong toward the Republican party, from ioth(i: the Democratic and Progressive Ijparties. It will solve the problem $ of prosperity and economy. ill

i^jC the Republicans of Hancock ccjuijjty attend the mass convention atj Greenfield Saturday. They will Bee fend can get acquainted with Hitgli T. Miller, candidate for United States Senator P. J. Lynch, candidate- for congress, and Judge Ed Ja.ckson, candidate for secretary of state.

The taxpayers will find before long that the cry of extravagance is more than a mere political scheme. It will pinch their pockets in a way that talks effectively.

•J*

The responsibility of pulling laws rw -i 1 i- iu 'home of John Davis and family, jn the statute books of Indiana, that I

were not passed by the legislature,! has not been located. Governor Ralston intimated that the guilty' persons should be sent to the peni-j tentiary, bill, so far they have not! even been disclosed. The party in' power and responsible for administration must bear Ihe blame for such serious irregularity. It was feared that the Democratic bossed machine would do many irregular things if in power, but no one ever suspected that laws never passed would find their way into the statute books. The agency responsible for that crime would do anything. I

The Republican party practices economy. The Democratic party talks it and practices extravagance.

Next U. S. Senator From Indiana

Hon. Hugh Th. Miller, Republican Nominee For U. S. Senator (BATESVILLE TRIBUNE Hugh Th. Miller, Republican candidate for United States Senator, is a man possessed of those sterling qualities that inspire confidence and win respect. In all his relations in life he has PRACTICED rather than preached the doctrine of the "square deal." •j jThe

served two terms in the State Senate while Mr. Miller pre

sided over that body. No fairer presiding officer ever held the gavel or decided parliamentary questions in that or any other body. A Republican in the strictest and best sense of that term, he never took advantage of his Positron discriminate against a Democrat or to favor a Republican because of his political affiliations.

Every Democrat in the senate respected him for his impartiality and acknowledged his ability as a presiding officer. Should Hugh Th. Miller be elected to the United States Senate by the voters of Indiana, the people will have an able representative in the highest legislative body in the world, a man of clean life, public and private, a scholarly gentleman, fearless, honest, upright, broadminded and true to his conceptions of right. Mr. Miller deserves the confidence and merits the support of the voters of Indiana.

TRADE BALANCE AGAINST US.

Imports For July $6,096,OOO in Excess of Our Exports.1,, New York, Aug. 29.—Our foreign trade in the month of July resulted in a balance against the United States of more than $6,000,000. Imports made a new high record for July, while the total of exports was unusually small. July was the fourth consecutive month in which exports fell below imports, whereas a year ago there was an excess of exports of $22,000,000 at the end of July.

Exports last month totalled $154,-

082,000 and imports $160,178,000, leaving an excess of imports of $6,096,000. As compared with the corresponding month of last year, exports decreased $6,908,000 and imports increased $21,116,000. For the seven months of 1914 ending with July, imports increased $122,469,000 while exports decreased $25,817,000.

With the outbreak of the war this country's iAiports fell off very rapidly and its exports increased. Accordingly, August is expected to show a balance in this country's favor, which will be increased as soon as Europe begins to take American cotton.
